Three Confessions

Confession: I’m back up to three cups of coffee in the morning.

It is such a terrible cycle! I’ve had quite a few early mornings recently, where one or two cups simply wouldn’t do. But a few hours later I am exhausted! So I have another cup of coffee or a cup of tea.

The silly thing is, I’ve been down this road before! So I’m trying to turn over a new leaf today. One cup of coffee followed by tons and tons of water. Fingers crossed it works!

Confession: I am OBSESSED with spaghetti squash!

I hadn’t planned baking any squash this week, but then they were on sale at Harris Teeter, so I couldn’t resist!

I baked the above squash on Tuesday night. After a long day at work, I really didn’t feel like doing anything fancy with the squash. Parrish was out of town, so I simply baked the squash,

and forked out the “noodles”. Then I just topped it with spaghetti sauce. And you know what? It was totally delicious! Don’t get me wrong, Spaghetti Squash Caprese and Spaghetti Au Gratin are really yummy, but in a pinch, just plain sauce was good too!

Confession: My twin brother took all the drawing skills in the womb.

Exhibit A:

My map is on the left – my co-worker Katie’s is on the right. Yep.

Good thing I work with great folks….and that my paycheck doesn’t rely on artistic ability!
